Is there anyway to uninstall zsh? I wasn't able to upgrade it so I want to uninstall it then install it using brew.

    You are going to need to give a certain amount of detail about the environment you are working in. And you should specfiy that you mean take zsh off the system and not, change my default shell away from zsh (or the other way 'round).

  • @MaQleod: This is OS X, since the OP mentions using Homebrew.

You don't necessarily need to uninstall it. Since you're using Homebrew, you can simply make sure that Homebrew's bin directory is before anything else in your $PATH. For instance, put this in your .bashrc or similar:

PATH=$HOME/.homebrew/bin:$PATH

  • I couldn't find .bashrc anywhere!! my path is getting messy, echo $PATH gave me: /Users/Home/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180@rails3/bin:/Users/Home/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180@global/bin:/Users/Home/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/bin:/Users/Home/.rvm/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/git/bin:/usr/X11/bin

  • @Ans: If you can't find it, then simply create it. And the PATH messiness isn't bad.

  • You don't have to create the PATH. There's going to be some stuff automatically in there. You might have to create the .bashrc file is what I was getting at.
